I'm an atheist celebrating christmas with a Christmas tree along with thousands of other non Christians and it has nothing to do with the Jesus or the bible you're right about that.
Coincidentally as I was typing that last post in work a girl behind me was saying how much she loves Christmas and a workman came in with a Christmas tree under his arm saying where do you want the Christmas tree.
Makes me glad this work place isn't infected with political correctness that makes this holiday/Christmas thing even an issue.
So, Christmas now has nothing to do with Jesus and the Bible, but calling it anything but Christmas is stupid?
Oh, the irony of you, an atheist, arguing that it's fine that a religious holiday can evolve enough that you are allowed to celebrate it but having the terminology evolve to fit the times is ridiculous. It's almost as funny as as Christians creating a holiday by hijacking another festival and its customs and then throwing a hissy-fit when anyone else dares to propose a change.
I've been in favor of the "two party system" since I found out we could party on Xmas AND New Year's Eve. As Xmas is now about the money I have no problem with it.
